West Indies’ decline in Test cricket is not a matter of dispute. This was, after all, the team that went unbeaten for almost two decades until they finally lost a series to Australia in 1995. Since then, their fall has been swift and multifaceted, and the stats back it up.
What follows is a statistical analysis of their performance since 1995/96. The graphs have been created using the Test database created by Cricinfo’s Anantha Narayanan, which itself is built on public Test Scorecard data. Anantha is aware of this project and has been supportive, as he tends to be on most cricket analytics endeavours.
